Defining Biblical Theology
Biblical Theology is the discipline of seeking to understand individual passages of Scripture and Scripture's overall narrative and theme. It is composed of analyzing individual passages, determining their meaning, theological implications, and doctrines, and synthesizing Scripture's passages and their biblical messages, themes, and doctrines into a comprehensive theology of God's Word. In other words, individual passages are interpreted and related to other passages so that the Bible's overarching narrative and theme are discovered.
